Bentley Systems has announced that is now accepting nominations for the 2020 Year in Infrastructure awards.

Bentley’s YII Awards form a significant component of its mammoth annual Year in Infrastructure conference, with the 2020 event to be held over October 12-15 at the Vancouver Convention Centre.

As always, the awards are judged by an independent panel of experts across a range of categories, and seek to recognise ‘digital innovations that improve project delivery and/or asset performance’.

All nominations receive a write-up in Bentley’s Infrastructure Yearbook, with three finalists from each category winning a free trip to the main event in Vancouver.

Australian projects and firms have been well represented both at the 2018 awards in London and Singapore’s 2019 event.
